I think the best way is to "mv /etc/rc2.d/S20ssh /etc/rc2.d/noS20ssh".
Since unless the file begins with S or K, it is ignored. I don't like
deleting the link because you then can't lookup what the default Debian
configuration was set to. In this way you can configure each run level
with precision. Finally, the "no" prefix documents what you were
trying to do.
